Should the Valley News have printed a correction?

What do you think? Yes? No? Acknowledge the mistake? Ignore it?

Absolutely, yes. As a news editor myself I would certainly have published a correction for such a major mistake, along with the explanation.

I'm surprised they didn't publish a correction! Of course they should!

Yes, I was confused about that as well, since they clearly recognized that they had made a mistake.

interesting

Thank you.
